PLM Setup Software

Setup | Analog Output

Output Table:

The Output Table Setup dialog is displayed when the Output Tables
button is clicked.

Note that the two tables setup in this dialog are the same tables used for
displayed values, transmitted values and analog outputs, but each
function can use either table 1 or table 2.

Output Function:

This parameter specifies input to the analog output Calibration Table. The
Ip’ and ‘Ipn’ options are the raw and normalized sensor pump cell
currents (Ipn is normalized using the calibration method specified under
Setup | Sensor). The other options are the two tables that are specified
under the Output Tables setup.

Calibration Table:

The calibration table allows users to set the voltage output that
corresponds to the table input value. The table takes the input value and
translates it to an analog voltage (0 to 5 volts) by way of the calibration
table. The voltage is linearly interpolated between points in the table, so
at least two pairs of values must be entered in the table.

Once created, calibration tables can be saved (using the Save As
button), and reloaded (using the Load button) for use in other
configurations.

Default Output:

The analog output voltage is set to the Default Output voltage if the PLM
is not active or if the analog output is disabled.
